Danny and Derek discuss the Pandora Papers, which reveal that global capitalism isn’t exactly fair; the recent EU summit that addressed whether or not six Western Balkan states will be able to enter that organization; and developments in intra-Middle East diplomacy. They then speak with Leah Bolger, president of World BEYOND War, Patterson Deppen, researcher for World BEYOND War, and David Vine, professor of anthropology at American University in Washington, DC, about “Drawdown,” their Quincy Institute report about the U.S.’ global basing structure. They discuss the origins of the basing system; its contemporary purpose; and why we need to close the bases.
